The Power of Being Different

In a world polarized by absolute "rights" and "wrongs," this post champions "The Middle Way" as a necessary and radical path. It examines our societal craving for simple narratives and "bogeymen," arguing that this addiction to blame prevents self-reflection and true understanding. The author makes a compelling case for rejecting binary thinking, embracing nuance, and replacing judgment with a genuine curiosity about others. This is a call to find intellectual freedom by appreciating the infinite shades of grey in a world gone mad with extremes.

The Middle Way: A Path Through Polarization

This post explores how to move off "autopilot" at work by using mindfulness as a practical tool. It explains that by first building self-awareness—noticing our own emotional and physical reactions—we can then cultivate greater empathy and conscientiousness towards others. The article shows how this shift from automatic judgment to genuine curiosity helps us better understand our colleagues, de-escalate conflict, and build stronger, more authentic professional relationships.

Bias, what bias?

This post identifies the "silent career killer" as the failure of managers to see past their own personal filters and biases. Using a powerful personal story about a dismissive job interview, it illustrates how these preconceived notions can make employees feel invisible, crush morale, and quietly push top talent out the door. The author argues that the solution is for leaders to replace certainty with curiosity, challenging their own assumptions to discover and nurture the true potential of their people.
